  Ruomei frowned.

  What does she mean? This woman……why is she still smiling as if…


  She felt incredulous.

  Come on, Ruomei. Don't be foolish. As if she has already won? That's so preposterous! I am the winner.

  But at the same time, she couldn't shake off that bad feeling inside her that felt as if something ominous was going to happen.

  Fu Renshu cleared his throat. "Ladies and gentleman. I haven't completed my report yet."

  The Old Madam squinted her gaze. "What do you mean, Fu Renshu? What else would be left? The report is over!"

  "Well…"

  His phone rang just at the right time. "Excuse me. I have to pick this one."

  He heard the other person speaking. Fu Renshu then faced everybody and said, "As I had said, I haven't completed my report. The one I announced was the first part. This is the second part that you all must listen to."

  He put the phone on speaker.

  "Assistant Fu! There is a huge crowd gathered in front of the hotel!"

  As everybody heard it, they were utterly confused.

  Fu Renshu asked, "What do you mean by a huge crowd? Which hotel?"

  "Sir, the same hotel about which Miss Shi and Madam Lixue were having the competition. A huge, and I mean to say an insane amount of people have gathered here. Even our security is having trouble holding them together outside the gate."

  "What do they want?"

  "Two things. First, they are all here to buy some comics."

  Ruomei froze.

  "I don't know from where they got this information that we are selling comics here. But they are insisting that they will get it here only. They mentioned some Storyteller posting about the comics."

  Storyteller?

  The Old Madam's face was marred in bewilderment

  "And secondly, they are insisting the guards open the gates. They want to visit the hotel premises."

  The media reporters didn't miss this sensation as they covered this change in tide. Their instinct said that something major was going to happen.

  "When I searched about this Storyteller, I found that it's an account on Weibo who is anonymously posting some comic draft pictures. It has already got millions of fan following and the last post that person made was that if they wanted to buy the comics and visit the place drawn in the comic, then come here. And now there is a huge gathered here. I am sending you the live video recording."

  A ding sound popped up and Fu Renshu got a video message. When he opened it, everybody saw the frenzy happening outside the hotel. The people's excited cheers resounded in the entire area.

  "I am here!"

  "No, no. You know what you should say, right?"

  "Haha! I remember. I do!"

  "I do!"

  "I do!"

  "I can't wait to read the whole comic!"

  "Yeah! The artist did such a great job. It's been a while since I have read a well scripted and well-drawn comic before."

  "Will Storyteller finally itself?"

  "Damn it. I don't even know if it's a man or a woman haha."

  "What do you think? Did the husband really kill her?"

  "But how did he come so soon to catch her?"

  "Gosh, did you see the chase scene in the hotel? It was so mysterious and thrilling! I couldn't believe that the hotel drawn in the comic is a real-life place!"

  "That turn at the corridor almost looked like a secret tunnel!"

  "I can't wait to see the hotel from inside!"

  "Hahaha! I want to know the full story as soon as possible! Will that cheater husband get away?"

  Ruomei blankly looked at the recording where people cheered and jumped like crazy.

  What is happening?

  The Old Madam said, "Fu Renshu, what is going on? What is this mess going on?"

  Lihua smiled. "It is not a mess. This is my win!"

  Her face darkened. "Nonsense!"

  Fu Renshu said, "Madam Lixue is right. This is her win indeed."

  In the video, a truck just entered the scene that stopped near the hotel gate. Everybody was puzzled as to what was happening.

  "What is this truck here?"

  "Hmm, I don't understand…"

  A few men stepped out of the truck and rapidly set up a bunch of tables in rows. Then they stepped to the backside and climbed into the truck. As they came out, the crowd was stunned to see them carrying towers of books in their hands and some were wheeling the trolleys, all books stacked into them.

  The crowd broke into a frenzy and exclaimed. "Ahhh! The comics are here finally!"

  "Yes, yes! The comics!"

  "Storyteller kept its promise indeed. We will finally get our copies!"

  They rushed towards where the tables were set up.

  "One copy please!"

  "Hey, I want three! I am buying for my friends too who are not in China right now. Gosh, they felt so jealous of me haha."

  "I want two!"

  A man dressed in a formal suit arrived at the scene and coughed. He announced. "Everybody! I am the manager of ZZ Printing and Publishing Company. We have brought all the copies as told by Storyteller. Please be patient. Everyone will get their copies as promised. I implore you to please form a line to avoid chaos. We don't want anybody to get hurt."

  It took a few minutes but the hyper crowd finally calmed down and lined up in an orderly manner. Though they were still urging the manager to make it faster.

  In a matter of minutes, all one hundred thousand copies got sold in a flash with tons of additional copies already pre-ordered. The cash kept flowing like a never-ending waterfall.

  Almost everybody began reading the comic as soon as it was handed to them.

  A beautiful young woman, Lai Yue, found her husband, Yi Junjie, cheating on her with another woman. Heartbroken, she runs away only to land in the arms of a stranger. To her shock, it was her Yi Junjie, who carried a knife in his hands. Hurt and terrified that he wanted to kill her, she runs away. She couldn't believe that he would go this far to get rid of her.

  "Wait!"

  She kept running until she bumped into a man who was hastily following her.

  "Lai Yue!"

  She froze and was stunned.

  Didn't she just meet him now in the other corridor? How did he come here so soon?

  As she turned, she saw the stranger looking exactly like Yi Junjie, reach her spot.

  Her eyes widened in shock. "You two…"
